Anatomy and Physiology Revealed (APR): access through Connect VCCS COURSE DESCRIPTION: Integrates anatomy and physiology of cells, tissues, organs, and

systems of the human body. Integrates concepts of chemistry, physics, and pathology. Part I of II. LEARNING OUTCOMES: Through this course you will achieve an understanding of the fundamental

interactions of normal body structure and function. You will also lean the terminology used to describe normal body structure and function. IMPORTANT DATES: 6/12: Last day to drop with refund 7/7: Last day to withdrawal with a grade of W 7/28: Last day of class WITHDRAWAL POLICY: Withdrawal from a course without academic penalty may be made within the first 60% of this course. The studied will receive a grade of “W” for withdrawal. After that time, the student will receive a grade of “F”. Exceptions to this policy may be considered under mitigating circumstances which must be documented and submitted to the appropriate Dean for review. ATTENDANCE STANDARD: Class attendance is an integral part of a sound academic program for classes at J. Sargeant Reynolds. In accordance with J. Sargeant Reynolds Student Atendance (Policy 1-3) and Treatment of Federal Financial Aid When a Student Withdrawals (Policy 1-36) Policies, it is required that student attendance be monitored in class. Attendance in the course is mandatory and will assessed as part of your grade. If you decide that you do not want to complete this course, it is recommended that you complete a formal drop or withdrawal from by the deadlines. Failure to do so may result in a potential drop, withdrawal, or “F” in this course, which may affect your academic progress and/or financial aid status. Execptions to this policy may be considered under mitigating circumstances which must be documented and submitted to the appropriate Dean for review and consideration. *Note there will be no refund for withdrawn courses.

GRADING POLICY: The quality of performance in any academic course is reported by a letter grade. The grading scale is as follows: 90 - 100% = A, 80 - 89% = B, 70 - 79% = C, 60 - 69% = D, below 60% =F Final grades will be determined from the 4 test grades and attendance/lab grade and is broken down as: Tests (5 tests): 60% Assignments (Connect, Labs, PhILS, APR): 35% Attendance/participation 5% CLASS ASSIGNMENTS: Assignments will include the review questions from the lab manual, Connect assignments and various exercises from Anatomy and Physiology Revealed (APR). All weekly assignments are due by Sundays at 11:59 pm on the week they are assigned. Weekly announcements will be posted on Mondays providing the information for what assignments are due for the week. Assignments are to be submitted through Canvas by either scanning and uploading as PDF, JPEG, or DOC files, or answers can be written out in word and uploaded as a word document. TESTING POLICY: Tests will all be administered through Canvas using Respondus Lockdown Browser or other method of proctoring. You will have plenty of notice to complete the test prior to the deadline, no extensions will be allowed. MIDTERM PROGRESS REPORTS: You will be provided a mid-term grade so that you may make an informed decision about a plan of action for the remainder of the semester. ACADEMIC HONESTY: Policy 1-34: The faculty of J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College recognized that academic honesty is an integral factor in developing and sharing knowledge. We support the concept of academic honesty, practice academic honesty in our classes, and require academic honesty from our students. JSRCC students are expected to maintain complete honesty and integrity in the completion and presentation of all academic assignments and examinations. Any student found guilty of cheating, plagiarism, or other dishonorable acts in academic work is subject of College disciplinary action. Academic dishonesty is cheating and stealing. Academic dishonesty includes but is not limited to:  Intentionally writing material verbatim from a source without giving credit.  Rewriting material from a source without giving credit.  Using information from an Internet source without giving credit.  Submitting the work of another person as your own work.  Using/copying another student’s computer disk.  Copying from another person’s paper/test/homework.  Allowing someone else to copy/use your work (paper, homework, quiz, test).  Violating VCCS Computer Ethics Guidelines in the pursuit of academic studies. Please read the Academic Honesty Policy (Policy 1-34) and be certain that you understand what is meant by “cheating”, “plagiarism”, “facilitating academic dishonesty”, and “other forms of academic dishonesty”. Any allegations of violations of the academic honesty policy will be pursued. Students responsible for academic dishonesty may be subject to a grade of “0” for an assignment or “F” for the course. STUDENT CONDUCT: In order to achieve the best learning environment possible for this class, students are expected to adhere to the highest behavioral standards. Please maintain proper netiquette in the course. Signs of behavioral misconduct will be addressed by the instructor and/or reported to the Vice President for Student Affairs for judicial processing.

Please note that more than 3 incidences of behavioral misconduct may result in a one letter grade reduction in your overall grade. Single, severe incidents my result in a grade reduction at the discretion of the instructor. If you have any questions regarding the Student Conduct Policy (Policy 1-35), please refer to the Student Handbook online, or contact the Student Affairs Office at 523-5296 ADA Compliance: The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and other Federal laws, including the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, require J.
